North Island

Naval Air Station North Island

Coronado

Yesterday, I stopped by the base to see if anything has changed. I don't ever go there when my sailor is deployed. I did notice that the bases were now doing 100% ID checks at the gates. And there is a lot of road construction going on around the area as you leave the base. It was a big of an obstacle course.

I quickly headed to where the Nimitz is usually docked. Here is the picture of the building (I'm guessing their supply building?) next to where they are usually docked. I am reminded of all the times I would drop off my sailor for his short underway trips.

This is where the Nimitz is suppose to be. When I drove up to this parking lot and saw the carrier, I was reminded of my sailor's ship.


I believe this is the USS Ronald Reagan. Looks like there is a lot of work being done on it.

I drove around the base and took pictures. I was lucky I didn't get pulled over for taking pictures. I remember taking pictures outside of the Great Lakes base and security asked us to stop. It was a bit cloudy and cold yesterday. After my drive around the base, I headed for the beach on Coronado and toured their downtown area. I love Coronado, it's so beautiful and romantic.
